Verse 1:
 
Aadd#11       A     A6    A
Everything that gave me
Aadd#11  A   Aadd#11
Reasons to stay
Aadd#11       A   A6  A
Our bed, our plans
    Aadd#11
Gone by the way
 
Am6      Am7   Am Am7
My pockets were empty
Am6          Am6#11
My palette was grey
Am6        Am7 Am  Am7  Am6  Adim7  B11
Thoughts of surrender
        E5
But not today
 
Verse 2:

Aadd#11       A   A6  A
Good wine can mellow
  Aadd#11  A   Aadd#11
Long in the cup
Aadd#11       A   A6  A
My thirst unquenched
   Aadd#11
I savoed each drop
 
Am6     Am7 Am Am7
Love and illusion
Am6       Am7
Woven with pain
Am6  Am7  Am   Am7  Am6  Adim7  B11
Time could mend it all
        E5    Fdim7
But not today
 
Bridge:
 
C#m7
Color and form
G#m7
Shadow and light
  F#m7
Touch of the brush
B11
Laughter in the night
 
C#m7
Beauty’s refuge
G#m7
Textured and frayed
F#m7
Hardened and polished by the
B11     B7sus  E5
Bargains that I made
 
Verse 3:
 
Aadd#11     A  A6  A
Touched by so many
Aadd#11  A   Aadd#11
Some by my side
Aadd#11     A  A6  A
The dreams I followed
Aadd#11
Carried on the tide
 
Am6     Am7 Am Am7
All that we hope
Am6          Am6#11
And strive for and pray
Am6     Am7  Am   Am7  Am6  Adim7  B11
Leaves us forever
        E5    Fdim7
But not today
 
Chorus:
 
C#m7
Color and form
G#m7
Shadow and light
  F#m7
Caress of the brush
B11
Laughter in the night
 
C#m7
Beauty’s last refuge
G#m7
Textured and frayed
F#m7
Deepened and polished by the
 B7   B7sus         E5
Bargains that we've made
